🎉 Last week, Nair successfully defended her Ph.D thesis on the genomic heterogeneity of circulating tumor cells and their role in metastasis! Her research sheds light on how cancer spreads. Huge congratulations to Nair on this outstanding achievement! 👏🧬

Intraline genomic heterogeneity of the triple-negative breast cancer MDA-MB-231-luc-GFP cell line Cancer cell lines are valuable models for studying tumor biology, yet their genomic evolution during culture can compromise experimental reproducibility. We conducted a detailed genomic analysis of th...

🚨 New paper out in Cell Reports Methods! 🧬✨
After a long, long journey, we're thrilled to share our deep-dive into six single-cell whole-genome amplification (scWGA) methods.

🔍 TL;DR: no one-size-fits-all

Huge congrats to the whole team!

Our #Cancer #Evolution summer school runs again 30 June-3 July at the beautiful Genome Campus in Hinxton, UK sponsored by @wellcometrust.bsky.social

Ideal for starters in the field; this year's focus is on using genomic data for cancer evo research.

Brilliant & inspiring faculty! bit.ly/40nLdDD

We have two open positions for #computationalbiologists to work on:
1. Early cancer initiation following our work in #NatureCancer (Ref 5028)
2. Response to cancer immunotherapy following our work in #CancerCell (Ref 5073)
